Pitting edema anyone?

Question

So I came home from work after my day...I think it was 2/5, I'm on 4/5 today, thank God. I work as a nurse in the ICU so I was on my feet all night long, wore compression socks the next day and it was only slightly better.

Answer

Seems common with us nurses being on out feet for 12+ hours. I was worried, but my doctor said as long as my blood pressure is good, it's fine. Mine is definitely a 2+ on a bad day. It just hurts!

Answer

I'm in the same boat. 2+ at the ankles and 1+ from knees down. I'm a nurse as well. Those 12's are killing my feet! Ted hose and elevation, but it's not helping 100%. I think we better come to terms that until we stop working or delivery our beautiful babies this is what our feet will look like😳.

Answer

Not as bad but I definitely have some swelling.
